Written on the strips of paper

Complete communication is essential to the quality of

the communication process in general. Hence, ,
communication should include everything that the
receiver needs to hear for him/her to respond, react, or
evaluate properly.

Conciseness does not mean keeping the message short,

but making it direct or straight to the point. Insignificant
or redundant information should be eliminated from the
communication that will be sent to the recipient.

To be effective, the speaker should always consider

relevant information about his/her receiver such as
mood, background, race, preference, education, status,
and needs, among others. By doing so, he/she can easily
build rapport with the audience.

Effective communication happens when the message is

concrete and supported by facts, figures, and real-life
examples and situations. In this case, the receiver is more
connected to the message conveyed.

The speaker shows courtesy in communication by

respecting the culture, values, and beliefs of his/her
receivers. Being courteous at all times creates a positive
impact on the audience.

Clearness in communication implies the use of simple

and specific words to express ideas. It is also achieved
when the speaker focuses only on a single objective in
his/her speech so as not to confuse the audience.

Correctness in grammar eliminates negative impact on

the audience and increases the credibility and
effectiveness of the message.
